    *Unfortunately last minute licensing events beyond Atari's control mean the 458 is not available on the X360 version of the game. An exclusive car not found on other versions of the game has taken its place (official detail to come later). Atari are really sorry about the communication error that meant this didn't get pointed out sooner.

    If you have basic reading comprehension skills it really isn't that hard to figure out. I don't mean to come across as rude, just, it seems a bit silly.

    Quite a few people have told me this. And yes I did run a check on those parts but I'd rather have someone I can trust tell me that they will work together. Colour me idiot if you will but I'm on a tight budget as is so I'd rather not be messing things up.

    edit: I actually changed the build almost completely Carcass, it's all compatible though. Going for the 550 Phenom Black (Gold edition or something) with an ASUS mobo. Will try the unlocking (I've checked it out and its insanely easy to do but requires alot of luck). I had no idea you could revert back to the more stable dual core.

    Exactly. That's another reason I'm less than pleased with this game so far. The original leaked list was huge, bigger than TDU1. Then it got cut in half essentially, and everyone knows damn well why. DLC abound! And they've confirmed it. Rumor is a bike pack is soon as the first.

    Take a look at the official list of cars at release for both games, and it's no wonder a bunch of fans are ticked.

    If I'm really bored one of these evenings I'll go through and add as many of the ratings as I can. I agree on the Lamborghinis as that's always been my favorite make, as I mentioned. I'm not sure if we'll see that as DLC or not. Guess it depends on how well the game does.

    I'm hoping clubs are up this evening like they said as I'm curious what they're all about. If you're still not in the Millionaire's Club, Isy, I'd be fine with buying one, unless you have the money for it.

    I'm actually back out of the MC, but if I ever finish this B3 championship I'm back in, baby. I dropped the $275k or whatever it was on the Ferrari 430 just so I could get the last photo I needed, even though I already had the convertible version.

    And yeah, I'm not even close to the millionaires cheevo. Have to apologise for not maintaining the OP, lots going on at home + new computer planning is mkaing my head hurt a fair bit.

    Well, if you're in the right spot for a photo, you'll get the camera icon on your minimap and you just press A or whatever button activates those then you'll get an information pop-up showing the requirements of the photo. If they're all green, you press A and it'll switch to your camera. Then there are two indicators, a position and a zoom. You just adjust those until they're both green then take the photo. You get $5k per photo (as well as discovery xp) and $50k when you get all of them (at least all of the Ibiza ones, I've only started the Hawaii ones). Once you hit a certain level, you'll get a reward that will actually show an icon of the photo locations like all of the other icons that float in the world.

    To help find the locations, you can check back in with the photographer and it'll give you hints. Or you can do what I did for the most part and just use the google map that was posted (and would be a good addition to the OP). I had fun doing the first 20 anyway.

    Off the top of my head, the cars required for some are the Ferrari 430, the Mercedes SUV, and the Corvette.

    Edit: Google map

    Ha, knowing my luck so far this year, all the parts will be DOA. I'm really hoping it makes a huge difference and that the 5570 I have is decent enough to run TDU on high. I didn't get any distortions or pixelating when I tired it in this rig, just a huge framrate hit.

    Yeah, sometimes the lighting is just right and everything looks fantastic, and other times the light catches the buildings wrong and they look like they wandered in from the 90s.

    Tree LOD is a little weird and mirrors are a bit funky, but no real major graphical issues

    The two problems I run into is driving around at night and then BAM its mid day out of nowhere. Though i think that might be related to server issues.

    Secondly very rarely the game will just lock up for a split second then about 10 seconds later it will lock up for like 30 seconds usually when im offline and when it comes back i will have teleported ahead of where i was. Its strange because if it happens when im in a race i will be teleported ahead but no time will have passed on the clock. Its not a graphics problem cause it runs fine normally with no problems and it happens seeming at random times.

    One bug I'm really sick of is the "sit for 1 second in neutral" at the beginning of most events. The devs have designated it a "possible" bug, but QA hasn't confirmed it or whatever.

    Just got a Breaking News update in game (well, two). When I went back to my house to check, there were two messages relating to the clubs. One said they were down but should be up soon (or something like that) and the other said that accounts that exploited the glitch would be "dealt with without warning". Hope no one here used it. :P

    Anyway, just finished the B3 championship (the two time trials that gave me such fits last night were zen-like today. I finished one like 11 seconds ahead of time). Also beat Chris Wilder in a grudge match so I now have an SUV with my name on it.

    I've been told that MATX mobos are bad for heating and that the PSU is too underpowered to run my GPU. Weirdly I've been using my GPU which requires a 500W o a 280W PSU :P

    It looked good to me but eh, what do I know? (ALso, the actual order had a AMD 955 3.4 not 550)

    Earlier today we made an attempt to bring Club functionality online, but due to a new issue being discovered, we took it down immediately to get things fixed. At this time we don't have an exact ETA of when Clubs will become available, though its a top priority and we're working to get them back into the game ASAP.

    The main problem with a microATX motherboard is the lack of expandability, with only two RAM slots and fewer PCI/PCIe slots. The main things to look at on a PSU besides rated power are the brand (Cooler Master is pretty good) and amperage on the +12v rail(s).

    Well, I pretty much hate Ford, and after doing the A4 license test I'm never touching an Aston Martin again.

    Plus, I've only seen a couple of clips so far.

    Aston Martins are way cooler than Ferraris. You're like some sort of person that doesn't know that.

    Aston Martins are all sitting under a tree sipping tea while Ferraris are all getting laid by Porsches.

    Where does the Veyron fit in all this?

    The Veyron is conveying Mork back to his home planet.

    Man I like how everything is barely working in this game and half the features are down... BUT DLC PURCHASING IS UP AND RUNNING A-OK!

    *sigh*

    Yay. Every section of the map on Ibiza is covered but both section one and two are stuck at 99%. It would be nice if you could highlight sections that were missed in red.
